Schuh Wins Bizarre Hand After Thumann Check-Raises River with Exposed Card
Hans Thumann limped the small blind, and Michal Schuh checked his option.
On the A♦10♥3♣ flop, Thumann led out with a bet of 110,000, and Schuh called.
The 2♠ hit on the turn, and Thumann fired again, this time with a bet of 150,000. Schuh again called.
It was at this point that things got weird. Thumann attempted to peel his cards, but made a handling error which meant Schuh saw one, which he stated was the 3♥.
The dealer checked Thumann's card, and it was indeed the 3♥. He was forced to expose it.
The 7♦ hit on the river, and Thumann checked. Schuh slid out a bet of 150,000, but Thumann responded with a check-raise to 400,000, much to the amusement of the table.
Schuh himself was laughing, but made the call after a bit of thought. Thumann's K♦3♥ was no good versus Schuh's A♣4♥ for a pair of aces.
